Arriva North East’s MAX upgrade

Arriva North East has upgraded its service X75/X76 to MAX standard. This sees the service’s buses fitted with Wi-Fi, leather style seating and ‘the very latest in journey planning technology’. Services X75 and X76 operate up to every 30 minutes between Darlington, Gainford and Barnard Castle. A promotional activity for the revamped service in Darlington saw the operator give out free tickets to the local attractions of Barnard Castle and Bowes Museum, as well as a free trip to Barnard Castle.
